The Gold-Edge electroacoustic guitar offers a popular Auditorium body shape suitable for pick and fingerstyle playing, and the option of a sound system with L.R. Baggs Anthem active electronics with Volume and Tone controls subtly set into the guitar's soundhole.
The guitar's soundboard is made of solid Sitka spruce wood, which has undergone a special heat treatment before assembly (a torefaction process called ATV - Aged to Vintage). The result is the sound and look of decades of aged wood, yet it is a brand new model. The back and sides are made of solid veneered myrtlewood (California basswood or umbellifer). The natural acoustic resonance of the wood is enhanced by a thin layer of UV lacquer, hand-picked ribbing (Scalloped-X) and the DoubleLock method of bolting the mahogany neck. The mahogany neck itself is reinforced with two pieces of walnut for extra stability.
The ebony fingerboard is divided by twenty frets with rounded edges and position markers in the form of decorative mother-of-pearl inlays. Stability of tuning is guaranteed by the string attachment in Grover mechanics and ebony headstock. Traditional decorative and practical elements are complemented by a mother-of-pearl rosette (Abalone), mother-of-pearl inlay on the headstock and ebony pegs in the fingerboard with mother-of-pearl dots.
The guitar comes in a high-quality case (Cort Deluxe Soft-Side Case) that combines the best features of cases with the practicality of padded gig-bags.
